    Hmm, I wonder if the timing (of your Ghana posts) is a coincidence. :whistle:

    Amazing that (until the mid-1960s) they used Latin on their coins. Sure, you see that on British coinage too - but I don't think there are many African pieces with the title of the "leader" in Latin ...

    That is what I thought of, yes. :) Sure, maybe the "timing" of the post had nothing to do with that game. I just found it funny. Judging from your username ... well, I hope you will continue to enjoy the World Cup!
